Copy of Enola Gay pilot's log fetches $50,000 at auction

When Lewis saw the large mushroom cloud, he uttered the famous remark "My god what have we done?"

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve." Ironically uttered by Japan's Admiral Yamamoto after the attack @ Pearl.

“I honestly have the feeling of groping for words to explain this… My God what have we done,” he wrote.

Exactly how many, if not most Americans felt then, and still feel now. Shame it ever had to come to that.

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve." Ironically uttered by Japan's Admiral Yamamoto after the attack @ Pearl.

I respectfully must respond to this by saying that Admiral Yamamoto never made any such remark. It was a line in the film "Tora! Tora! Tora!." A perusal of the internet will confirm this.

Back on topic please.

I hope a museum bought the logbook.

This is just a copy, not the original?

Yes. As the article says, in 2002 the original sold at auction for almost 8 times as much as this copy sold for.
